I think the West side of the family has started a tradition. Once again, my father has invited us to go down to his place in St. George for Easter. Ryan's family and our family was their along with my Dad and Kathryn. It was so nice to just get away. Gavin had so much fun. The first day we were there my Dad took us out for a ride in the Jeep. We went and saw an old fort and some dinosaur tracks. We even stopped and let Gavin shoot a gun at some cans (with the help of Grandpa). Gavin is so funny, he loves cactusus and has to point them all out. But when I ask him to stand next to one for a picture he was to scared of getting stabbed by it. That boy never fails to make me laugh. Here he is at the Fort....
Grandpa West even had one of those water trampolines that you put out on a lake, he blow it up and put it in the back yard for the little ones to jump on. Gavin and Portia had a blast jumping on it and throwing balls at everyone.
On another day we went for a hike. Gavin had a blast hanging out with Portia and Brett. There was even a stream that we had to cross. Johnathan was crazy and just walked through the stream without a care in the world. Everyone else used the stepping stones.
Everyone had a blast. We played in the hot tub, and had an Easter egg hunt in the backyard. The weekend just wasn't long enough. Let's hope that next year we will be able to go again. We are so thankful for everything that my Dad does for us. Gavin sure loves going down to his place in St. George.
